Questions

March 27th, 2007 · No Comments

–Does McCain-Feingold (which is five years old today) apply to putting politicians’ pictures on baseball tickets during an election year?

–Does the inapplicability of the First Amendment to child pornography also apply to merely discussing child pornography?

–Should the plaintiff in a civil lawsuit be allowed to compel a deposition from a defendant that a “five minute Google search” shows is the wrong person? Would your answer change if you learned that the plaintiff is the RIAA and the defendant is a 10-year old girl?

–Why should “driving while texting” be an explicit traffic offense but not “driving while slurping”? Is “such a bill would never pass the state legislature” a legitimate answer, as one activist legislator seems to think?

–Will Eliot Spitzer, who as New York Attorney General never met a business he wasn’t willing to sue, be as aggressive as governor and go after consumer-cheating Saratoga Spa State Park, a government entity that, along with the private contractor it retained, has been deliberately mixing ordinary tap water into its famed mineral baths for twenty years?
